Spicy taste and burning after taste

[Sdsam]

His guys,

This is my first post. I have been smoking Marlboro light one pack a day for about 15 years now.

I have moved to ecig to quit smoking. I Belive I have ordered Different kinds available such as provari, lava tube, Riva 901, Ego T, Echo, and KGo kits

I have moved from PG to VG as I started noticing thickly throat while vaping.
Now I have a problem. With VG, ordered the 24 mg winstin, Virginia tobacco, cigar, tobacco flavour (all youcan imagin that has tobacco taste to get satisfied with the old analog Marlboro taste. I have now over 60 different tobacco juice. But the problem I have is that I keep getting spicy vape taste or spicy after vape or some times the tickled throat. All of which I never got with the analog cigaret.

I kind of looking for some advise here before I go back to analog. As you can see, all set of devices, and different model juices keep giving me the spicy his which I don't get with normal analog. I have even used different atomisers, tanks, dual coils with different ohm.

The past 30 days is been a nightmare since I started vaping.

please advise.

Thank you

Sounds like you not getting something particular that you used to get in Analogues. My advice would be that It's not your device or carto, and that you may need to try some Tobacco Absolute or Whole Tobacco Alkaloid juice. If that doesn't work out then perhaps some snus to ease the cravings.

What level of nicotine are you using? Nicotine has a peppery taste and if your level is too high, it might seem spicy. Good luck!!!

^^^ +1 Sounds like your nicotine level is too high.. for a Marl. Light smoker you should be ALOT lower then 24Mg you should be alot closer to 12mg and i think you'll find you like the taste and everything alot more.

OH, and definitely try different flavors!!!

I would suppose that it could be the nicotine strength, as mentioned, or possibly a flovoring that is common to tobacco flavored e-liquids.

I've had bad experiences with a 'toasted almond' and an 'm-type premium tobacco' flavoring. The toasted almond I have tastes fine at first, but leaves an aftertaste in my mouth for hours. I suspect that any 'toasted'-type flavor may do this to me. The M-type was so incredibly strong, it actually seemed to almost hurt my taste buds. Even at about 0.25%, it leaves a metallic and sort of burnt aftertaste in my mouth for hours as well.

Many people seem to lose taste for some time after starting to vape, not sure why.

I'd probably try getting some unflavored VG/nic juice, and some pure VG, and mixing it down to a lower nic with no flavorings, and even try pure VG, in order to try and eliminate nicotine, VG, or flavorings as the culprit.

Edit: Oh, and as always, drink more water when you vape. Not drinking enough can cause some surprising symptoms.

Wow. So you think it's the nicotine level. I am using 30 on intellicig, 24 mg on juices I got from LF ad some 18 mg from others. Just ordered some 14 mg samples to see of that would make some difference here.

Well, I have asked couple of people about what nic level I should use as Ive been smoking Marlboro and I got several responses all with the range of 18 to 30mg nic.

Thanks for the replies.

Btw,
Any link for
UK based to get the pure VG unflavoured and something to reduce the nic down on mixing?

What kind of water I need to use for diluting? Where I can buy it from. Otherwise I will have to through away all my current stock as they are high nic based.
And last, I love the throat hit I used to get with Marlboro light. What could help pure VG juice to increase throat hit?

Thanks

Try adding some pure grain alcohol for throat hit. Also remember that you will still have some cigarette withdrawal even with vaping. Cigarette companies and Marlboro specifically adds free base nicotine to their cigarettes. With vaping you don’t get that, which decreases the nicotine "rush" you get from smokes. Also try other flavors. You just cant get that true cigarette taste without all the poisons in a smoke. The other flavors out there can be outstanding. You may just find you like them better. Many have stated that that tobacco flavors just don't seem that good to them after they have been vaping for awhile. The others are right about the nic level. Ever notice that when you chew nic gum it tastes peppery or spicy? That’s the nicotine.

+1 on the drinking of water. I would definitely up my daily intake, no matter how much you are already drinking. It will help get rid of the cigarette toxins and help your taste buds heal. You may be getting the throat tingling from dehydration. Anyway, more water can't hurt and could very possibly solve the problem.

Just like to add that distilled water works fine to dilute VG. Pure grain alcohol is used by some to dilute or add throat hit, but I'm a bit leery of adding very much alcohol to my juices.

And the link to Liberty Flights a few posts up is a good one. They have unflavored nic juice, and plain VG in their DIY section. They have some nice stuff there, and a very nice 20% discount link at the top of the site. Many other sites also sell these, too.
